	In an interesting hiccup of fate, a little book called Codex: Imperial Agents has been bequeathed to use by the folks of Games Workshop. It contains within many factions and small detachments that an enterprising player (especially those of the Imperial bent) may wish to utilize.

	:*'''Canticles of the Archmagos:''' These work exactly like Canticles of the Omnissiah, scaling in power the more Canticles of the Omnissah units singing along. They can only be used if Belisarius Cawl is on the battlefield, and they also affect all Imperial vehicles within 12" of Cawl, even if those don't have Canticles of the Omnissiah! There are three of them:		:*'''Canticles of the Archmagos:''' These work exactly like Canticles of the Omnissiah, scaling in power the more Canticles of the Omnissah units singing along.

There are three of them:
	::*'''Harmony of Metallurgy:''' If you have 1-3 CotO units are granted a single IWND roll, 4-7 are granted two rolls, and 8+ are granted three IWND rolls to recover their Wounds and Hull Points. This more than makes up for the fact that Cawl does not have Master of Machines. Affects himself, too, so he can potentially recover 4 wounds in a single turn. No info as of yet on whether this stacks with existing IWND.		::*'''Harmony of Metallurgy:''' If you have 1-3 CotO units are granted a single IWND roll, 4-7 are granted two rolls, and 8+ are granted three IWND rolls to recover their Wounds and Hull Points.

	::*'''Word of Neutralisation:''' If you have 1-3 CotO units increase their BS by 1, 4-7 increase their BS by 2, and 8+ increase their BS by 3. We herd you ~~liek~~ Doctrinae Imperatives, so we gave you a Doctrine in your Canticle so you can wipe out enemies while you are charging them. Compensates nicely for the generally bad BS of Cult Mechanicus units, allowing you to land a devastating alpha strike, and can severely increase the amount of firepower that IG/AM tanks are pumping out.		::*'''Word of Neutralisation:''' If you have 1-3 CotO units increase their BS by 1, 4-7 increase their BS by 2, and 8+ increase their BS by 3.

	::*'''Warhymn of Glory:''' If you have 1-3 CotO units now have a 6+ Invuln, which is increased to 5+ for 4 to 7 units and to 4+ to 8+ units. Pretty much the Blessing of Binharic Deliverance by another name, and is equally [[Awesome\|awesome]]. (Give a Knight a 4++ on the turn he gets into combat, or give a Knight Warden/Crusader +3 BS for a turn to really kill those units...)		::*'''Warhymn of Glory:''' If you have 1-3 CotO units now have a 6+ Invuln, which is increased to 5+ for 4 to 7 units and to 4+ to 8+ units.

	:Do note that the Canticles of the Archmagos makes Cawl the best friend of every Imperial tank list in the game, and he can easily be cheesed with the Enginseer Congregation. Pay 40 points for an Enginseer? That's another +1 on the result of his abilities, allowing you to max out all of the results relatively quickly (especially with Servitors picking up the slack). Have Cawl buff and kill shit while your Enginseers fix all of the tanks around him.		:Do note that the Canticles of the Archmagos makes Cawl the best friend of every Imperial tank list in the game, and he can easily be cheesed with the Enginseer Congregation.

	*'''[[Heresy\|Daemonblade]]''': While using a daemon weapon is almost always a bad idea if you aren't with Chaos (especially because it's S User and AP-), it gives you two randomly selected powers from the following list (roll two 2d6, if you get the same result twice it lets you choose which buffs you want). It can be funny if you get the right rolls, and since 7 is statistically likely, it's alright versus Daemons, I guess... Or you could take a Hellrifle. OR, for shits and giggles and some pretty good asskicking, grab two daemonblades ([[Troll\|There's nothing in the codex that says you can't]]) and get FOUR epic powers. [[Just as Planned\|Imagine going up against 3 S6 AP2 attacks from an FNP Eternal Warrior Inquisitor that can instant death in a duel]]...or 6 poisoned attacks with furious charge and rage and the inquisitor gains another wound each time he kills something. Now you get to tell people to remove their models on melee combat, HAHAHAHAHA!... Thankfully too this book also clarifies which effects apply to the Inquisitor, and which effects only apply to the blade, so even if you're not using them the blades can still help you out if you roll lucky enough, though now they're also Two-handed weapons.		*'''[[Heresy\|Daemonblade]]''': While using a daemon weapon is almost always a bad idea if you aren't with Chaos (especially because it's S User and AP-), it gives you two randomly selected powers from the following list (roll two 2d6, if you get the same result twice it lets you choose which buffs you want).
